My Prediction: This Bowl game is also being called the ‘Who Cares Bowl’. Both of these teams have no business being here. Illinois became Bowl eligible on October 8th with a win over Indiana to go 6-0. They then went on to lose their last 6 games to finish 6-6. Pathetic. UCLA in my book isn’t even Bowl eligible. I thought you had to have a winning record to go bowling. Either way, these teams will be playing New Year’s Eve and I have to pick a winner. Compared to Illinois, UCLA is on fire, winning 1 of their last 4. Take UCLA and watch one of the other bowl games. UCLA +2.5 CLICK HERE TO BET THE FIGHT HUNGER BOWL OR
